Just showing off some more finished handles. These are NOT available because they have been ordered by customers. However, I uaven't heard back from these guys in a while and hope that maybe the peek in here (Anthony & Chris).

I'm new to his but I love your handels , it would be an honor to oun one of your handels

Thank you Fran. I enjoy making them, wish I had more time for it. On one side it means a lot to me to hear nice words about them, on the other hand there are so many more talented craftsmen on this board that I really feel quite humble about them...

Just playing around, sorry - crappy phone pics. Sticking an octagon handle on a 10" VG10 damascus blade with a bolster and a stick tang, then sanding the tip flush to the bolster, having the handle flare out into an octagon at the butt. Next time I would keep it a little thicker right behind the bolster, but it still feels good and looks much nicer than the pics show. Wood is spalted maple, black horn and amboyna spacers.
